Hi and welcome to the channel
We hit 80,000 miles so it's time to change our cambelt and associated parts on our selfbuild vw crafter campervan after stripping out the crafter grill & front end access to all the areas we need to get to to change out the parts

Cheers pal when I set out to build this van it was always my intention to do as much of the work myself as I possibly can it's not been easy but has definitely been worth the slog

Hi just watched the cam belt video how much would you charge to change one

@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife 3 ай бұрын

I'm not sure what the going rate would be, I personally don't have the time to work on any other vehicle's if your asking me to replace yours sorry

Good vid. Do you allways remove viscous fan and radiotor etc to get to it?. Also i need to change crank pulley at same time as hot start issue so suspect worn pulley. How you keep pulley positions when you remove it

Yon needs the fan off to access all parts 👍

thanks for the guide sam , just wonder whose kit you used ? keep up the good work 👍👍👍

@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife Жыл бұрын

If you're referring to the seal kit I would only use oem kits from now on. I've replaced most of what came in the kit with original parts as they have failed or were poor quality 😁👍
